HELGESON PATRICIA E.,BLOSSER ERICISIMEAC f I Foreword When viewing the research done in science\education in a year, one is first nearly overwhelmed with its diversity. If one has agreed to prepare a cogent review of that research, its,diversity immediately becomes the first problem to.be solved, Briefly stated, that problem is: How can flie important work being reviewed be organized into a useful, coherent, eaningfdl pattern? To answer the foregoing question we employed a technique not unlike that used by Mendelyeev when he developed. the first periodic table of the elements. In other words we read abstracts and ported them into groups that had common subject matter. When the abstract left any doubt regarding the subject matter of an item, the original source was consulted before a decision was made. TheNrganizatio'n of this report, therefore, is purely empirical. Those persons who did the research fashioned this report's organization x into seven categories: 1. Learning and Development 2. Teaching Methods and Procedures 3. The Education of Teachers 4. Evaluation in Science Education 5. The Use of Media'in Science Education 6. The Concepts, Processes and Content of Science 7. College Level Research, While each of the foregoing categories constitutes a chapter in this volume, each chapter has an internal organization based upon that chapter's content. Our intent in preparing this report was to'provide a general over view of the research in science education done.in 1976- and to state conclusions and questions arising from the research which might lead other researchers to continue and expand what has been done. A second intention of this report's authors was to ,include a review of those studies that could genuinely be called research. There are, however, other types of activity in science education which will be of intarest ii to science education researchers and which'have been published in some form. A rather complete bibliography of the activities taking place, in science education in 1976 follows the narrative of this report, That bibliography'contains many entries other than theresea h reviewed in a the narrative of the report. The authors express their thanks to DrStanley Helgeson and his staff of Ohio State Universityfor their assistance and patience in searChirg.for and locating the data upon which this report is based. Our thanks are also extended to Donna Abraham who typed the reportts manuscript. Norman, Oklahoma John W. Renner AUgust, 1977 Michael R. Abraham Don d.

Norman, Oklahoma 73019, \ Leatiling'and Developmertt The research done in the category of "Learning and Development" during 1976 focused upon the thecicTes of David.Ausubel and Jean Piaget. One study was designed to compare the theories of Piaget, Vygotsky, and Ausubel, four studies considered the work of Ausubel and a total .of 21 studies examined the paradigm proposed by Piaget. The four studies considering the Ausubefian theory tested the efficacy of the advance organizer concept. The workfocusing on the Piagetian theory considered the measurement of levels of intellectual development or the influence of the theory upon curriculum, Research With the Ausubelian Theory The four studies reported which considered the advance dtganizet technique were made at three different educational levels. Theseleveli are the ninth and twelfth grades, college level physical science for non-science majors, and college juniors in teacher education program. 0 Murchison (203)eeploredthe usefulness of the advance' organizer concept in thehing science to ninth graders. Four groups of students were formed and oach exposed to a different organizer: a pretest, a concrete organizer, an abstract organizer, and a control. The groups. were brought together_ immediately after ,experiencing the organiZer, given a lecture on sound waves and then administereda two-part test. The student groups were matched on IQ, sex,andteachei-determined motivation ranking. 6 2 The pretest was the same as the test (od.sounCwaves) given after the lecture, and-the concrete and abstract organizers involved generalized . wave theo'ry. One part of the test involved rote material and all questions, which had been answdted in the lecture. The second part of . the Test required abstract and/or problem solving ability.Murchison found that, when abstract material

    Physics and Feynman's Diagrams » American Scientist 6/3/10 12:09 PM FEATURE ARTICLE Physics and Feynman's Diagrams In the hands of a postwar generation, a tool intended to lead quantum electrodynamics out of a decades-long morass helped transform physics David Kaiser George Gamow, the wisecracking theoretical physicist who helped invent the Big Bang model of the universe, was fond of explaining what he liked best about his line of work: He could lie down on a couch and close his eyes, and no one would be able to tell whether he was working or not. A fine gag, but a bad model for thinking about the day-to-day work that theoretical physicists do. For too long, physicists, historians and philosophers took Gamow's joke quite seriously. Research in theory, we were told, concerns abstract thought wholly separated from anything like labor, activity or skill. Theories, worldviews or paradigms seemed the appropriate units of analysis, and the challenge lay in charting the birth and conceptual development of particular ideas. In the accounts that resulted from such studies, the skilled manipulation of tools played little role. Ideas, embodied in texts, traveled easily from theorist to theorist, shorn of the material constraints that encumbered experimental physicists (tied as they were to their electron microscopes, accelerators or bubble chambers). The age-old trope of minds versus hands has been at play in our account of progress in physics, which pictures a purely cognitive realm of ideas separated from a manual realm of action. This depiction of what theorists do, I am convinced, obscures a great deal more than it clarifies.

  • Physics Curriculum Reform: How Can We Do It?
    PHYSICS CURRICULUM REFORM: HOW CAN WE DO IT? Robert G.Fuller, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nebraska -Lincoln, USA The physics community in the United States of American is facing a crisis. This crisis has been described in presentations and papers at professional meetings in various ways. Let me introduce you to the crisis faced by the physics community by discussing three different published papers that present views of this crisis. First is the paper by David Goodstein, Provost of the California Institute of Technology and a physicist who co-authored The Mechanical Universe television series and textbook. According to Provost Goodstein "The Big Crunch" occurred in the 1970s which was the end of 100 years of exponential growth of science in the USA. No longer was increase financial support and national interest in science guaranteed. Our educational institutions are poorly adapted to deal with a different future. In the USA science education has produced the Paradox of Scientific Elites and Scientific Illiterates. We have a small cadre of exceptional scientists and a broad population of scientific illiterate people. The model for science education in the USA has been described as a leaky pipeline. This is the wrong. Mining and Sorting is a better metaphor for science education in the USA. The purpose of the education enterprise has been to sort out the student unworthy of a professional degree in science. It reaches its culmination in graduate school. Research professors obtain external funding, independent of the needs of the institution, to run their research programs. In the steady state each professor needs to turn out ONE Professor for the next generation.

The conference locked at the relationship between development styles for development enterprises as a whole and the developmental pattern of individual projects. Attention was concentrated on how curriculum developments are defined and by whom, in what terms they are formulated, and how activities are generated in response to these needs and purposes..Much of the discussion centered around (1) the contrast between centralized and decentralized systems; (2) the impact of curriculum development on the rcle of the teacher;
